Chemical Treatment for Termite Infestation

Repellent Chemicals

Repellent chemicals are quickly detected by termites and avoided, they provide excellent protection for treated locations. However, if not all areas are treated, or the treated locations become disrupted, termites can recognise those gaps and get access via them.

The most commonly used repellent chemical is Bifenthrin, that features a residual lifetime of up to 5 years.

Non Repellent Chemicals

Non-repellent treatments aren’t detected by termites, and they do not steer clear of the chemical. As a result of this, termites will go over the chemical and die because of contact with it. Also, individual insects will pass the chemical onto fellow colony members, resulting in a flow on effect.

Since the termites can not detect these non-repellent chemicals, they can’t tell untreated from treated areas, and are much less likely to gain ingress via gaps.

Fipronil is a commonly used non repellent on the market, and has a residual lifetime of as much as 8 years.

Termite Control Baiting Systems

Above Ground Systems can be used to eliminate termites from buildings by positioning bait stations at the site of activity, so they begin to feed on the bait matrix instead of the timber they were consuming. Worker termites then feed the bait to other colony members and so a compounding effect is achieved.

In this manner, the whole nest may be eliminated even though the location of the nest is not known. The stations should be monitored and assessed frequently in case the situation should require stations to be rebaited, the addition of more bait stations, or if they should be moved to another area.

In-Ground Systems are often installed throughout the property as an early warning system. These systems are particularly useful when the design of a building may prevent other effective perimeter barriers, as they can intercept and eliminate termites before they breach the perimeter.

Benefits Of Termite Baiting Systems

• Very flexible protection systems
• Unaffected by weather conditions
• No danger for kids & pets
